Admins can select this link to see the groups assigned to the selected user or admin. 4. **Email Notification** - The system now sends a welcome email after signup when the account is pending activation, informing the requester that the registration is under review. - Introduced an automated email notification that informs account owners when their account is successfully activated and provides the Admin Portal URL for login. 5. **Redirect Users for Required Authentication Factor Enrollment** Added the "Redirect Users to User Portal for Enrollment" checkbox (Settings > General Settings > Admin) for SAML/OIDC application logins. When enabled, users attempting to sign in to a SAML/OIDC application are redirected to the User Portal to complete enrollment if they have not enrolled for the required authentication factors for login. 6. **Four-Digit Year Validation for Calendar Field** Enhanced the “Expire User” calendar field on the Edit User page to accept only four-digit numeric values for the year. 7. **Passwordless Account Signup and Activation** Introduced a passwordless signup flow. Admins can now verify their email address with a passcode, enroll a supported authentication factor (Passkey, Mobile Enrollment, Mobile Number, or Password), and then activate their account to access the Admin Portal. 8. **Configurable Azure AD Synchronization Permission** - Added an “AD Permissions” (Settings > General settings > Admin > Directory Settings) setting that allows admins to choose between “Standard Permissions” (default) and “Limited Permissions” for Azure AD synchronization. Limited Permissions reduces the required access scope by allowing admins to manually provide the required AD group details. - Super Admins can now change AD Sync permissions from Standard to Limited without affecting existing configurations. Tenant admins must reauthorize the AD connection with the updated permissions before making further AD Sync changes. 9. **Quick Page Navigation** Administrators can now jump directly to a specific page by entering a page number in the pagination control. The page number field validates the input and automatically navigates to the selected page. 10. **Temporary RFID Card Management** Added a new **Temporary RFID Cards** menu under **Authentication Devices** to manage temporary RFID cards used for inventory. Administrators can add, import, and delete temporary RFID cards, while preventing them from being assigned to users or used for authentication. ### Endpoint Access Security (AuthX Secure) 1. **Conditional KSI Lockout Based on Keyboard Detection** - Added the “Disable Keyboard Lock until device is detected” checkbox under Advanced Configuration on the Manage Configuration for Windows page. When enabled, KSI lockout is activated only when a KSI keyboard is detected at system startup or connected afterward. If no KSI keyboard is detected, KSI lockout remains paused, preventing unnecessary countdown notifications and workstation lockouts. - KB Detected and KB Undetected events are added to the transaction log to track when a KSI keyboard is connected or disconnected. 2. **Parity Bit disabled by default** Newly created Windows and Linux applications now have the Parity Bit option disabled by default. Users can manually enable it when required, while existing applications retain their current configuration. 3. **Remote Debug Mode Management** Added “Enable Debug Mode” and “Disable Debug Mode” options to the “Actions” menu on the Endpoint Management page to allow admins to remotely enable or disable Debug Mode for the selected endpoint. ### Directory Services 1. **Enhanced SCIM Provisioning Log Search and Export** Added an “Identity” filter to search SCIM Provisioning logs using full or partial identity details and an “Export Logs” button to download all logs or only those matching the applied filter criteria. ### Mobile Device Access Management (AuthX DAM) 1. **Enhanced DAM Device Management** - Renamed the Managed Mobile Devices page to Managed DAM Devices. - Enhanced the Managed DAM Devices grid to display additional device details, including Device SN, Workstation ID, Facility, and Location. - Added an option to Add Facility and Location and Change Facility and Location mappings for DAM devices under Actions. - Added filtering options for Device SN, Workstation ID, Facility, Location, UDID, and Device Type. - Added summary counts for Total Devices, Workstations, and Mobile Devices at the top of the Managed DAM devices page. 2. **DAM Authentication Failure Email Notification** - Added the “Notification Settings” menu under AuthX DAM to configure email alerts for authentication failure events. Notifications are automatically sent to the designated recipients when the configured events are triggered. 3. **Manage Locations and Facility Mappings** - Added a “Manage Locations” page that displays Location, Facility, and Status details. Admins can now add locations and map them to existing facilities, as well as edit or delete existing locations. - Added a filtering option on the Manage Locations page to filter the grid using Location, Facility, and Status fields. ### SIEM (Security Information and Event Management) 1. **SIEM Integration** Snowflake is now available as a supported platform in the HTTP Event Collector (HEC) configuration for SIEM integrations. 2. **Webhook Configuration** AuthX now supports webhook configuration, enabling real-time delivery of RFID enrollment events to the specified endpoint URL. ### Identity Administration 1. **Metadata URI support for SAML applications and Identity Provider** Added support for importing SAML configuration using a Metadata URL for SSO Applications. Administrators can now import configuration details directly from a metadata endpoint. --- ## Bug Fixes 1. **Enhanced Log Sorting** Enhanced sorting for all reports and log pages in the AuthX Admin Portal. Sorting now applies to the entire dataset rather than only the records displayed on the current page.
